A  BRIEF  HISTORY  OF  MAINE. 

BY 

Jolin  Clair  Minot. 


All  of  us  who  are  sons  and  daughters  of  Maine  are  justly 
proud  of  the  place  held  in  history  by  our  native  State,  for  we 
know  that  in  all  the  great  sisterhood  of  the  Union  there  is  no 
State  with  a  past  which  gives  its  children  more  reason  for  pride. 
While  students  and  writers  for  a  long  time  neglected  the  early 
history  of  Maine,  they  have  in  recent  years  made  more  general 
use  of  the  wealth  of  material  here,  and  gradually  the  world  has 
realized  that  back  at  the  beginning  of  things  on  this  continent 
Maine  was  playing  a  part  worthy  of  a  State  whose  record  of 
achievements  has  been  so  long  and  brilliant  in  later  generations. 

There  is  no  need  to  delve  into  the  misty  traditions  of  the  visits 
of  the  Northmen  to  our  shores.  There  is  good  reason  to  believe 
that  they  explored  the  shores  of  New  England  centuries  before 
Columbus  was  born,  but  all  that  belongs  to  legendary  lore  rather 
than  to  the  realm  of  recorded  history.  But  after  the  New 
World  became  well  known  to  Europe  the  shores  of  Maine  were 
visited  by  the  earliest  explorers,  and  this  section  soon  became 
the  center  of  the  long  and  bloody  struggle  between  England  and 


42  MAINE    REFERENCE    ^lANUAL. 

France  for  the  possession  of  the  continent.  More  than  one 
early  voyager  sailed  up  the  Penobscot  River  in  search  of  the 
fabled  Norumbega  with  its  wonderful  columns  of  crystal  and 
silver. 

Not  until  the  beginning  of  the  17th  century  did  the  explora- 
tions have  definite  results.  The  voyages  of  Gosnold  (1602), 
Pring  (1603),  Weymouth  (1605),  Champlain  (1605),  and  John 
Smith  (1614)  were  the  most  notable  in  their  effect  upon  Euro- 
pean knowledge  of  this  section  and  in  stimulating  attempts  at 
colonization.  In  1604  a  French  expedition  under  De  Monts 
planted  a  colony  upon  a  little  island  at  the  mouth  of  the  St. 
Croix  River,  then  the  only  settlement  of  Europeans  in  all 
America  north  of  the  Spaniards  in  Florida.  The  colony  was 
abandoned  a  year  later,  but  it  was  nevertheless  the  real  begin- 
ning of  New  France.  The  real  beginning  of  New  England  was 
in  the  colony  planted  at  the  mouth  of  the  Kennebec  in  August, 
1607,  by  George  Popham  and  120  others  sent  out  from  England 
by  the  Plymouth  Company  whose  head  was  Sir  John  Popham, 
Lord  Chief  Justice  of  England. 

They  buiJt  a  fort,  which  they  called  Fort  George,  and  erected 
a  church  and  a  score  of  rude  houses  around  it.  This  was  the 
first  English  settlement  in  New  England,  but  like  the  French 
colony  at  the  mouth  of  the  St.  Croix  it  was  a  broken  beginning. 
The  rigors  of  a  single  winter,  during  which  their  leader  died, 
disheartened  the  colonists,  who  were  largely  adventurers  and 
seekers  for  wealth,  and  in  the  fall  of  1608  they  all  returned  to 
England.  Part  of  them  made  the  return  voyage  in  a  little  pin- 
nace or  shallop  of  30  tons  which  had  been  built  soon  after  their 
arrival,  the  first  shipbuilding  venture  in  America  and  the  begin- 
ning of  the  great  industry  which  later  made  the  Kennebec  famed 
around  the  world.  This  craft  was  called  the  ''Virginia  of  Saga- 
dahoc," this  section  being  then  known  as  the  northern  part  of 
that  vast  and  vague  "Virginia"  which  Sir  Walter  Raleigh  had 
claimed  for  England  some  20  years  earlier,  and  the  lower  part

of  the  Kennebec  being-  know  u  as  the  Sagadahoc  at  this  time  atul 
for  a  century  or  more  later. 

In  this  same  year.  1608.  French  Jesuits  lauded  upon  Mount 
Desert  and  a  few  years  later  they  were  joined  b\'  others  frotn 
France,  but  in  161 3  the  colony  was  wiped  out  of  existence  by 
an  English  expeditioti  from  \'irgnnia  under  Samuel  Argall.  At 
this  time  and  for  many  years  later  many  English  traders  and 
fishermen  were  frequenting  the  coast  of  Maine.  Their  chief 
rendezvous  was  in  that  region  which  includes  Pemaquiil  and. 
jNIonhegan  and  the  mouths  of  the  Sheepscot.  Damariscotta  and 
St.  Georges  rivers.  Most  of  them  were  mere  ai.lventurers, 
coming  and  going  with  the  seasons,  and  making  no  attempts  at 
permanent  settlement  until  about  16J5.  lit  1030  it  is  said  that 
84  families,  besides  fishermen,  were  residing  along  the  coast  of 
this  region. 

The  pennanent  settlement  at  Pemaqtiid,  which  was  later  with 
its  successive  forts  to  be  the  scene  of  so  nuich  stirring  history, 
dates  from  162^-26.  Sir  Ferdinando  Gorges  received  in  1622 
a  grant  of  territory  stretching  eastward  from  the  Piscataqua 
River,  and  within  a  few  years  .Vgamenticus.  now  York,  Saco. 
Scarboro.  Falmouth.  Brunswick  and  Arrowsic  were  founded. 
Gorges  had  dreams  of  a  city  which  should  be  the  seat  of  great 
power  and  in  1641  Agamenticus  became  Gorgeanna.  the  first 
chartered  city  in  America.  In  1652  it  was  organized  as  a  town 
and  named  for  the  English  city  of  York,  being  the  second  town 
to  be  incorporated  in  what  is  now  ■Maine.  The  first  was  Kit- 
tery  in  1647. 

The  part  played  by  ^Maine  in  saving  the  Plymouth  colony 
from  destruction  is  a  chapter  of  special  interest.  It  was  only 
the  corn  secured  at  Pemaquid  and  the  neighboring  islands 
which  saved  the  Pilgrims  from  starvation,  and  later  it  was  only 
by  means  of  the  profits  of  the  fur  trade  maintained  with  the 
Maine  Indians  that  Plymouth  was  able  to  free  itself  from  the 
burdensome  debt  which  it  owed  in  England.     The  Plvmouth

traders  established  several  posts  along  the  coast  and  on  the 
lower  Kennebec,  but  the  one  most  important  and  most  perma- 
nent in  character  was  that  maintained  from  1625  to  1662  at 
Koussinoc,  at  the  head  of  the  tide  on  the  Kennebec  where 
Augusta  now  stands. 

The  post  stood  where  Fort  Western  was  built  a  century  later, 
in  1754,  and  here  for  a  generation  the  men  who  came  in  the 
Mayflower  were  almost  as  much  at  home  as  in  the  streets  of 
Plymouth.  Few  of  us  here  in  Maine  have  realized  the  close 
connection  between  Plymouth  and  ancient  Koussinoc  on  the 
Kennebec.  There  is  nothing  legendary  or  uncertain  about  it, 
but  it  is  a  matter  of  authentic  history  that  Myles  Standish,  John 
Alden,  the  Winslows,  the  Bradfords,  the  Rowlands,  the  South- 
worths  and  others  whose  names  are  revered  as  those  of  the  m.en 
who  laid  the  cornerstone  of  our  civilization,  came  here  to  the 
spot  where  Augusta  now  stands,  not  once  but  continually 
through  a  third  of  a  century.  The  site  of  old  Fort  Western 
and  its  immediate  vicinity  was  long  trod  by  the  same  feet  that 
consecrated  Plymouth  Rock.  These  Pilgrim  Fathers  lived  in 
peace  with  the  Indians,  but  left  wholly  to  the  French  mission- 
aries, who  came  down  through  the  wilderness  from  Quebec,  the 
work  of  trying  to  civilize  or  Christianize  them.  When  the  game 
became  scarce  the  post  was  abandoned. 

The  name  of  New  England  was  given  to  this  region  by  John 
Smith  in  1614  on  his  voyage  of  exploration  and  trade  along  the 
coast.  The  name  of  Maine  was  early  applied  to  this  part  of 
New  England,  as  in  the  charter  granted  to  Gorges  by  Charles  I 
in  1639  when  it  is  spoken  of  as  "the  Province  or  Countie  of 
Mayne."  The  name,  as  is  now  generally  accepted,  came  from 
speaking  of  it  as  "the  main  land"  in  distinction  from  the  many 
islands  along  the  shore.  Massachusetts  lost  no  time  in  bring- 
ing the  Maine  settlements  under  its  authority,  although  the 
confusion  in  the  charters  and  patents  made  trouble  for  many 
years.     In  1652  all  the  towns  as  far  east  as  Casco  were  annexed 


MAINE    REFERENCE    MANUAL.  45 

by  Massachusetts,  and  by  1660  all  Maine  west  of  the  Penobscot 
was  claimed  and  retained  in  spite  of  royal  orders  from  Charles 
II.  The  region  east  of  the  Penobscot  was  then  and  for  many 
years  later  held  by  the  French,  whose  claims,  indeed,  covered 
the  territory  westward  to  the  Kennebec. 

From  1675  to  1759  a  series  of  Indian  wars,  six  in  all,  devas- 
tated Maine,  checking  the  tide  of  immigration,  costing  many 
hundreds  of  lives  and  ending  at  last,  as  such  a  warfare  had  to 
end,  in  the  practical  extermination  of  the  Maine  red  men.  The 
Indians  had  given  a  welcome  to  the  early  explorers  and  settlers 
which  was  wholly  friendly,  but  in  the  course  of  a  century  they 
had  suffered  many  wrongs.  Their  lands  were  taken,  they  were 
cheated  in  trade,  the  game  was  killed  off  and  some  of  the  Indians 
v/ere  even  kidnapped  and  sold  as  slaves  in  Europe.  Their  con- 
tact with  the  English  had  brought  them  only  degradation  and 
injustice.  Thus  when  King  Philip's  war  began  in  Massachu- 
setts in  1675  it  was  not  long  before  the  Maine  Indians  were 
drawn  into  it,  though  it  was  with  reluctance  that  the  peaceful 
Abenaki s  of  the  Kennebec  region  joined  the  other  more  warlike 
tribes  at  whose  hands  they  had  often  suft'ered.  At  this  time  it 
is  estimated  that  between  5000  and  6000  people  lived  along  the 
coast  of  Maine,  of  whom  less  than  1000  were  east  of  the  Ken- 
nebec. No  fewer  than  300  English  lives  were  sacrificed  in 
Maine  and  most  of  the  settlements  were  abandoned  and  deso- 
lated before  peace  came  in  1678. 

,This  first  war  was  wholly  between  the  Indians  and  the  Eng- 
lish settlers.  All  of  the  remiaining  Indian  wars  were  incidental 
to  the  long  and  bloody  struggle  between  the  French  and  English 
for  the  possession  of  this  part  of  the  continent,  a  struggle  in 
which  the  Indians  were  always  the  active  allies  of  the  French 
who  had  never  stolen  their  land  or  cheated  them  in  trade  and 
who  had  won  them  through  the  zeal  of  the  Jesuit  missionaries. 
To  follow  these  wars  would  be  tedious  detail.  No  one  of  them 
was  as  bloody  as  the  first  war  had  been,  for  the  settlements  were 


46  MAINE    REFERENCE   MANUAL. 

better  protected  by  garrisons  of  soldiers  from  Massachusetts 
and  the  EngHsh  had  become  more  wary  of  surprises  and  ambus- 
cades. Still  the  fourth  of  these  wars,  usually  known  as  Love- 
well's  war,  1722-25,  cost  the  lives  of  fully  200  English  soldiers 
and  settlers. 

During  the  third  and  fourth  wars  the  English  sent  numerous 
expeditions  against  the  Jesuit  missionary,  Sebastian  Rale,  whose 
headquarters  were  at  Norridgewock  and  who  had  carried  on 
for  over  30  years  the  work  which  the  pioneer  missionary  of 
Maine,  Gabriel  Druillettes,  had  begun  in  the  Kennebec  valley 
in  1646  with  the  sanction  of  the  English.  Beyond  doubt  Father 
Rale  used  his  great  influence  to  keep  the  Indians  loyal  to  the 
French,  but  the  English  accused  him  of  encouraging  uprisings 
and  giving  countenance  to  Indian  savagery.  Four  winter  expe- 
ditions failed  in  their  main  purpose,  but  in  the  summer  of  1724 
a  force  of  200  English  soldiers  succeeded  in  surprising  the 
Norridgewock  village.  A  great  part  of  the  Indians  were  killed 
and  the  village  was  completely  destroyed.  Father  Rale  was 
shot  with  the  rest  and  the  scalp  was  torn  from  his  white  head 
to  be  exhibited  in  triumph  in  Boston.  The  power  of  the  Ken- 
nebec Indians  was  broken  and  they  never  recovered  from  this 
crushing  blow.  Most  of  the  survivors  fled  to  the  eastward  or 
northward  to  Quebec. 

The  struggle  between  England  and  France  continued  and 
many  of  the  blows  of  the  battle  fell  upon  Maine.  It  was  a 
Maine  man,  William  Pepperell  of  Kittery,  who  led  the  expe- 
dition in  1745  which  captured  Louisburg  on  Cape  Breton,  the 
chief  stronghold  of  the  French  in  America  next  to  Quebec. 
Many  hundred  Maine  soldiers  and  sailors  were  with  this  expe- 
dition, and  also  with  the  expedition  of  1755  which  drove  the 
French  from  Acadia  and  that  of  1758  which  captured  Louisburg 
a  second  time.  A  force  of  400  French  and  Indians  attacked  the 
forts  at  St.  George  and  Friendship  in  1758,  but  failed  to  capture 


MAINE    REFERENCE    MANUAL.  47 

them,  and  this  was  the  last  blow  struck  against  the  English  by 
the  Indians  of  IMaine. 

In  1754,  as  outposts  to  guard  the  disputed  border,  the  English 
built  three  strong  forts  along  the  Kennebec,  Fort  Shirley  to 
replace  Fort  Richmond  which  had  been  built  in  1718,  Fort 
Western  on  the  site  of  the  old  Plymouth  trading  post  at  Kous- 
sinoc  and  Fort  Halifax  at  Teconnet  or  Winslow.  These  were 
never  attacked  and  after  a  few  years  they  were  dismantled  and 
abandoned,  while  settlements  sprang  up  around  them.  The 
capture  of  Quebec  in  1758  put  an  end  to  the  long  warfare,  and 
with  the  welcome  arrival  of  peace  the  tide  of  immigration  from 
Massachusetts  and  Great  Britain  poured  along  the  coast  of 
Maine  and  up  the  river  valleys. 

Maine's  part  in  the  war  for  independence  is  a  splendid  chap- 
ter in  its  histor\^  When  the  news  came  from  Lexington  and 
Concord  in  April,  1775,  a  company  was  formed  at  York  and  at 
once  hurried  to  Boston.  A  Maine  regiment,  raised  by  Col. 
Scammon  of  Saco,  participated  in  the  battle  of  Bunker  Hill. 
The  first  naval  battle  of  the  war  was  the  capture  in  May,  1775, 
of  the  armed  British  sloop  Margaretta  by  the  intrepid  patriots 
of  Machias  who  refused  to  obey  the  British  command  that  they 
take  down  the  village  Liberty  pole.  In  the  late  fall  of  1775 
occurred  the  expedition  of  Arnold  with  iioo  troops  up  the  Ken- 
nebec and  through  the  wilderness  in  the  attempt  to  capture 
Quebec  and  win  Canada  to  the  side  of  the  colonies.  In  October 
of  the  same  year  Portland,  then  a  town  of  2000  people,  was 
bombarded  and  burned  by  a  British  fleet  of  four  vessels  under 
Capt.  Mowatt.  The  British  held  the  Penobscot  through  the 
war,  with  their  headquarters  at  Castine,  and  eastern  Maine  was 
the  scene  of  several  important  expeditions  and  engagements. 
But  the  patriots  of  Machias  and  vicinity  remained  unsubdued, 
and  in  1783  the  treaty  of  peace  recognized  the  St.  Croix,  instead 
of  the  Penobscot,  as  the  eastern  boundary  of  Maine.  It  has 
been  estimated  that  Maine  contributed  over  7000  soldiers  to  the 


48  MAINE    REFERENCE    MANUAL. 

American  army  during  the  war,  and  of  this  number  about  iioo 
shared  with  Washington  the  hardships  of  that  memorable 
winter  at  Valley  Forge. 

Hardly  had  peace  been  declared  in  1783  before  the  movement 
began  for  the  separation  of  Maine  from  Massachusetts,  a  move- 
ment which  was  not  crowned  with  success  until  1820,  37  years 
later.  It  was  at  first  a  minority  movement,  but  the  arguments 
for  separation  became  stronger  as  Maine  grew  in  population 
and  desired  more  the  dignity  and  privileges  of  separate  state- 
hood. Then  there  was  a  political  reason,  as  Massachusetts  was 
strongly  Federalist  while  Maine  was  in  sympathy  with  the  oppo- 
site party.  The  first  vote  of  the  people  of  Maine  on  the  subject 
was  taken  in  1792  when  2,084  votes  were  cast  in  favor  of  sepa- 
ration and  2,438  against  it.  It  is  worthy  of  note,  however,  that 
in  83  of  the  89  towns  which  made  returns  there  was  a  majority 
in  favor  of  separation.  The  six  towns  opposing  separation  were 
all  in  York  county,  and  their  overwhelming  majority  against  it 
was  large  enough  to  more  than  overcome  the  majorities  of  the 
83  towns  favoring  separation. 

There  were  numerous  petitions  sent  to  the  General  Court 
during  the  following  dozen  years  and  several  conventions  were 
held,  but  the  next  vote  was  not  taken  until  1807  when  3,370 
votes  were  cast  for  separation  and  9,404  against.  Plainly  the 
movement  was  losing  ground,  but  the  War  of  181 2  greatly 
strengthened  it  and  when  the  third  vote  was  taken  in  18 16  there 
were  10,584  votes  for  separation  and  6,491  against  it.  In  the 
next  year  another  vote  resulted  11,969  for  separation  and  10,347 
against  it.  The  fifth  and  final  vote  in  181 9  resulted  17,091  for 
and  7' 1 32  opposed.  Every  town  in  Maine  gave  a  majority  for 
separation.  In  the  meantime  there  had  been  no  end  of  lively 
discussion  in  both  Maine  and  Massachusetts  and  many  debates 
in  the  General  Court.  The  people  of  Massachusetts  were  very 
unwilling  at  first  to  allow  the  separation,  but  finally  left  the 
decision  wholly  with  Maine.     There  was  still  the  struggle  in

Congress,  but  under  a  compromise  Maine  was  admitted  as  a 
free  state  to  offset  the  admission  of  Missouri,  and  on  March  15, 
1820,  the  separation  from  Massachusetts  became  complete. 

A  constitutional  convention  was  at  once  held  in  Portland  and 
only  796  votes  were  cast  in  the  new  State  against  the  constitution 
there  drawn  up.  William  King  of  Bath  became  the  first  Gov- 
ernor, receiving  21,083  votes  of  the  22,014  cast.  The  tempo- 
rary seat  of  government  was  Portland  and  in  1827  Augusta  was 
made  the  permanent  capital,  other  places  which  presented  claims 
for  the  honor  being  Belfast,  Wiscasset,  Brunswick  and  Hallo- 
well.  When  Maine  became  a  State  in  1820  its  population  was 
298,335  and  it  contained  nine  counties  and  236  towns.  The 
population  in  1790  was  96,540;  in  1800  it  was  151,719,  and  in 
1810  it  was  228,705.  At  each  census  since  Maine's  admission 
as  a  State  its  census  has  been  as  follows :  1830,  399,455 ;  1840, 
501,793;  1850,  583,169;  i860,  628,279;  1870,  626,915;  1880, 
648,936;  1890,  661,086;  1900,  694,466.  In  1900  Maine  ranked 
30th  among  the  States  of  the  Union  in  population. 

In  the  second  war  with  Great  Britain  Maine  bore  an  important 
part.  A  Maine  man.  Gen.  Henry  Dearborn  of  Gardiner,  was  at 
first  the  commander-in-chief  of  the  national  army,  and  Maine's 
quota  of  the  troops  called  for  was  2,500  men.  The  famous  naval 
battle  in  which  the  American  brig  Enterprise  captured  the  Brit- 
ish brig  Boxer,  occurred  Sept.  5,  1813,  off  the  mouth  of  the 
Kennebec.  The  British  early  invaded  eastern  Maine,  capturing 
Eastport,  Castine,  Belfast,  Machias,  Frankfort,  Hampden,  Ban- 
gor and  other  towns.  The  few  companies  of  militia  could  offer 
little  resistance  to  the  thousands  of  British  regulars.  At  Bangor 
the  enemy  burned  14  vessels,  carried  others  away  and  plun- 
dered much  public  and  private  property.  Although  the  treaty 
of  peace  was  signed  Dec.  24,  1814,  the  British  did  not  evacuate 
Castine  until  the  following  April.  The  "cold  year"  of  1816 
was  almost  as  much  of  a  blow  to  Maine  as  the  war  had  been. 
There  was  snow  in  every  month,  the  croDS  were  complete  fail-

ures  and  it  is  estimated  that  about  15,000  people  moved  out  of 
the  State,  most  of  them  going  westward  to  Ohio. 

After  Maine's  admission  to  the  Union  in  1820  prosperity 
reigned  and  the  State  made  substantial  progress.  The  first 
event  of  general  historic  interest  was  the  dispute  over  the  north- 
eastern boundary,  commonly  called  the  "Aroostook  War"  or 
"Madawaska  War."  The  line  had  long  been  in  dispute  and 
was  the  cause  of  frequent  quarrels  among  the  settlers  and  lum- 
bermen of  the  St.  John  and  St.  Croix  region.  The  officials  sent 
to  the  border  by  the  authorities  of  Maine  and  New  Brunswick 
in  1839  came  into  collision.  The  militia  was  called  out  and 
there  was  a  mustering  of  forces  by  both  sides,  but  through  the 
intercession  of  Gen.  Scott,  the  head  of  the  United  States  army, 
who  came  to  Augusta  for  the  purpose,  it  was  decided  to  refer 
the  question  to  arbitration,  and  thus  the  threatened  bloodshed 
was  averted.  By  the  Ashburton  treaty  of  1842,  Daniel  Webster 
being  the  American  commissioner,  the  line  was  fixed  greatly  to 
the  advantage  of  Maine,  and  the  State  received  $200,000  as 
reimbursement  for  the  expenses  incurred  in  defending  the  integ- 
rity of  American  territory.  After  the  signing  of  this  treaty  in 
1842  the  small  body  of  United  States  troops  which  had  been 
kept  at  Houlton  since  1826  was  withdrawn  and  the  post  aban- 
doned. 

After  years  of  temperance  agitation  Maine  led  the  way  in 
legislation  on  this  subject.  In  185 1  Governor  Hubbard  signed 
the  famous  "Maine  Law"  which  had  been  drawn  by  Mayor  Neal 
Dow  of  Portland  and  passed  by  the  Legislature  through  his 
efforts.  This  was  the  first  prohibition  law  enacted  by  any  state, 
and  after  being  made  more  stringent  in  later  years  its  principle 
was  embodied  in  the  fifth  amendment  to  the  constitution  which 
was  adopted  in  1884.  In  recent  years  there  have  been  vigorous 
assaults  upon  Maine's  prohibition  policy  and  attempts  to  have 
the  question  of  constitutional  prohibition  resubmitted  to  the 
people,  but  without  success.

No  state  in  the  Union  had  a  more  glorious  record  in  the  Civil 
War  than  Maine.  From  Bull  Run,  where  one-fourth  of  the 
Federal  troops  were  volunteers  from  ]\Iaine,  to  Appomattox, 
where  Gen.  Chamberlain  of  Maine  received  the  sword  of  Lee 
in  surrender,  the  sons  of  Maine  were  always  at  the  front  and 
did  their  part.  No  state  in  proportion  to  its  population  sent 
more  men  to  the  defense  of  the  Union.  Over  70,000  Maine 
men  enlisted  under  the  old  flag.  There  were  over  30  full  regi- 
ments of  infantry,  two  of  cavalry,  one  double  regiment  of  heavy 
artillery,  several  batteries  and  hundreds  of  men  who  went  into 
the  navy,  and  when  the  regiments  after  long  service  were  deci- 
mated by  battle  and  disease  they  were  recruited  again  and  again. 
No  regiments  had  heavier  losses  in  battle  than  some  of  those 
from  Maine.  Maine  regiments  were  the  first  to  carry  back  the 
flag  to  South  Carolina  and  Texas.  No  Maine  regiment  lost  its 
colors  in  dishonor,  or  brought  them  back  with  any  other  stain 
upon  them  than  the  life  blood  of  their  defenders.  The  State 
has  no  more  precious  possession  than  those  returned  Maine 
battleflags  which  are  treasured  at  the  State  House  in  Augusta. 

The  financial  burden  which  the  war  imposed  upon  Maine  is 
indicated  by  the  growth  of  the  bonded  debt  of  the  State  from 
$700,000  in  i860  to  over  $6,100,000  in  1866,  while  in  every  town 
and  cit}^  the  debt  burden  was  similarly  increased.  Moreover, 
there  was  such  a  drain  upon  the  State  that  its  population  act- 
ually decreased  in  the  decade  from  i860  to  1870,  a  misfortune 
which  overtook  no  other  Northern  state  except  New  Hampshire. 
But  no  figures  of  troops  furnished  or  of  losses  in  battle,  no 
statistics  of  increasing  debt  or  decreasing  population  can  meas- 
ure what  those  four  years  of  war  meant  to  the  patriotic  people 
of  Maine — the  sorrow,  the  sacrifice  and  the  suffering,  the  deso- 
lated homes  and  the  broken  lives. 

As  to  the  political  history  of  Maine  it  may  be  said  briefly  that 
in  the  early  years  the  State  was  usually  Democratic,  and  only 
once,  in  1840,  was  its  electoral  vote  cast  for  the  Whig  presi- 


52  MAINE    REFERENCE    MANUAL. 

dential  candidate.  Since  the  formation  of  the  RepubHcan  party 
in  1856,  a  movement  in  which  Maine  took  a  leading  part,  the 
State  has  been  emphatically  Republican  at  every  presidential 
election,  and  also  at  every  gubernatorial  election  except  those  of 
1878  and  1880  when  a  fusion  of  the  Democrats  and  the  Green- 
back party  succeeded  in  electing  their  candidate  for  Governor. 
The  Governor  chosen  in  1878  was  Alonzo  Garcelon  of  Lewis- 
ton,  and  in  1879,  when  another  election  was  held,  Governor 
Garcelon,  desirous  of  gaining  the  Legislature  for  his  party, 
seized  every  opportunity  afforded  by  the  irregular  way  in  which 
the  election  returns  were  then  handled  to  refuse  certificates  to 
Republican  candidates  and  seat  Democrats  in  their  place.  In 
this  way  a  Democratic  majority  was  secured  and  the  Legislature 
was  organized.  The  Republicans,  gaining  possession  of  the 
State  House,  organized  a  rival  body,  and  proceeded  to  elect 
Daniel  F.  Davis  as  Governor  since  no  candidate  had  received  a 
majority  at  the  polls.  Feeling  was  intense  throughout  the  State 
and  Augusta  became  an  armed  camp.  Peace  was  preserved  by 
the  militia  until  a  decision  of  the  Supreme  Court  established  the 
legality  of  the  Republican  Legislature.  This  affair  of  the 
"State  Steal"  or  "Count  Out,"  as  it  is  referred  to,  was  a  crisis 
in  the  history  of  Maine  and  it  is  little  less  than  a  miracle  that 
bloodshed  was  averted.  In  1880  the  system  of  annual  elections 
was  given  up  and  the  present  system  of  biennial  elections 
adopted. 

In  the  years  that  have  passed  since  the  Civil  War  Maine  has 
enjoyed  a  progress  that  has  been  steady  and  substantial.  The 
gain  in  population  has  not  been  great,  only  about  100,000  in  40 
years,  for  this  State,  in  common  with  the  others  of  New  Eng- 
land, has  suffered  from  a  declining  birthrate  among  the  old 
stock  and  has  seen  for  many  years  a  continuous  procession  of 
its  sons  and  daughters  departing  for  the  great  cities  and  for  all 
sections  of  the  West.  Factors  in  the  increase  of  population 
have  been  the  Swedish  immigration  to  Aroostook  and  the  influx 


MAINE    REFERENCE    MANUAL.  53 

of  French  Canadians  to  the  manufacturing  centers.  The  for- 
mer began  in  1870,  through  the  efforts  of  Hon.  W.  W.  Thomas, 
Jr.,  of  Portland,  and  the  hardy,  industrious  and  sober  Scandi- 
navians, with  their  descendants,  have  been  an  important  factor 
in  the  development  of  the  great  Aroostook  region.  The  earliest 
European  element,  not  English,  to  be  introduced  was  the 
German  colony  brought  in  by  Samuel  Waldo  who,  in  1739, 
founded  the  town  of  Waldoboro.  The  Irish  began  to  come  in 
as  laborers  a  century  later  with  the  beginnings  of  railroad  con- 
struction. The  Canadian  immigrants  have  confined  themselves 
largely  to  the  cotton  manufacturing  centers  of  Lewiston,  Bidde- 
ford,  Augusta  and  Waterville.  In  this  connection  it  is  of  inter- 
est to  note  that  of  the  15,878  births  in  Maine  in  1907,  9,452  were 
the  children  of  American  parents  and  3,265  the  children  of  for- 
eig-born  parents,  while  in  2,891  cases  one  of  the  parents  was 
foreign-born.  In  the  same  year  there  were  11,427  deaths  in 
the  State,  6,498  marriages  and  787  divorces. 

The  material  prosperity  of  Maine  is  indicated  by  the  State 
valuation  for  1907  which  was  given  by  the  State  assessors  as 
$354,516,848.  This  was  a  gain  of  $72,640,047  in  the  preceding 
decade.  Of  the  valuation  in  1907  about  45  per  cent  was  in  the 
20  cities  of  the  State.  In  1907  the  52  savings  banks  of  Maine 
held  deposits  of  $85,382,447,  representing  the  savings  of  225,346 
depositors.  This  takes  no  account  of  the  many  millions  depos- 
ited in  the  savings  departments  of  the  trust  companies  and 
national  banks.  It  is  an  eloquent  evidence  of  the  thrift  and 
industry  of  our  Maine  people  and  is  a  showing  which  few  states 
can  approach.  Ten  years  earlier  the  52  savings  banks  had 
deposits  of  $57,476,895  in  the  names  of  163,115  depositors. 
The  bonded  debt  of  the  State,  which  was  $6,100,000  at  the  close 
of  the  Civil  War,  has  been  reduced  to  $334,000  in  1908  and  will 
soon  be  wholly  wiped  out.  Of  the  521  municipalities  of  the 
State — 20  cities,  428  towns  and  73  plantations — 280  are  in  1908 


54  MAINE    REFERENCE    MANUAL. 

without  a  dollar  of  municipal  debt  and  a  large  share  of  the 
others  are  nearly  free  from  debt. 

The  shipbuilding  industry  which  was  so  important  on  our 
coast  for  generations,  and  in  which  Maine  long  held  first  place 
among  the  states,  has  declined  in  recent  years,  and  the  cutting 
of  ice  for  export  is  no  longer  a  thriving  business.  Along  other 
industrial  lines,  however,  there  has  been  increasing  prosperity. 
The  development  of  the  pulp  and  paper  business  has  been 
followed  by  more  extensive  operations  in  the  Maine  woods. 
Although  forests  still  cover  about  three- fourths  of  the  area  of 
Maine,  the  primeval  growth  of  pine  for  which  the  State  was 
famed  has  long  since  disappeared.  It  is  the  vast  spruce  tracts 
that  supply  the  great  pulp  mills  and  the  many  saw  mills  on  the 
rivers  of  the  State.  There  are  also  extensive  manufactures  in 
hardwood.  Agriculture  is  on  a  far  better  basis  than  in  earlier 
years,  and  much  more  attention  is  paid  to  dairying,  orcharding 
and  potato  raising.  Over  95  per  cent  of  Maine's  60,000  farms 
are  owned  by  the  men  who  till  them.  Maine  ranks  second 
among  the  states  in  granite  production  and  high  in  its  general 
mineral  resources.  In  its  fisheries  it  has  more  persons  employed 
than  any  other  New  England  state,  nearly  20,000  according  to 
the  latest  figures.  Cotton  mills  are  the  leading  industries  in 
several  cities  on  the  Saco,  Androscoggin  and  Kennebec,  and 
woolen  mills,  lumber  mills,  shoe  factories  and  general  manu- 
facturing establishments  prosper  in  all  parts  of  the  State,  though 
only  a  very  small  part  of  the  water  power  is  yet  utilized.  The 
steam  railroads  of  the  State,  which  began  in  1836  with  the  little 
road  from  Bangor  to  Old  Town,  have  in  1908  a  total  of  2,145 
miles  and  there  are  also  384  miles  of  electric  road. 

The  development  of  Maine's  summer  resort  business  within 
the  past  generation  and  the  increasing  appreciation  of  the  value 
of  its  fish  and  game  resources  have  been  an  important  factor 
in  the  prosperity  of  the  State.  Maine,  with  its  unrivaled  summer 
climate,  its  3,000  miles  of  magnificent  coast  line,  its  1,600  beau- 


MAINE    REFERENCE    MANUAL.  55 

tiful  lakes,  its  5,000  rivers  and  streams,  its  vast  and  unbroken 
forests,  its  rugged  mountains  and  its  many  picturesque  villages 
among  the  hills  and  ponds,  has  won  the  name  of  "the  nation's 
summer  playground,"  and  thousands  upon  thousands  of  vaca- 
tionists and  tourists,  hunters  ^d  fishermen,  seekers  for  rest  and 
lovers  of  Nature  at  her  best  are  thronging  within  our  borders 
each  summer,  adding  many  millions  of  dollars  yearly  to  the  rev- 
enues of  our  people.  There  are  sum.mer  colonies  all  along  the 
coast  and  at  a  hundred  inland  points,  and  the  names  of  scores 
of  Maine's  summer  resorts  are  familiar  throughout  the  land. 
This  annual  invasion  of  summer  visitors  is  solving  in  large 
measure  the  "abandoned  farm"  problem  of  a  few  years  ago. 

From  the  earliest  colonial  times  the  cause  of  education  has 
been  dear  to  the  hearts  of  the  people  of  Maine.  When  the  State 
was  admitted  in  1820  there  were  24  incorporated  academies 
within  its  borders  and  others  were  established  later.  Many  of 
these,  the  oldest  and  strongest,  survive,  though  the  free  high 
school  law,  which  dates  from  1873,  proved  a  death  blow  to  a 
large  part  of  the  academies.  One  of  the  first  laws  of  the  new 
State  was  that  requiring  every  town  to  raise  not  less  than  40 
cents  annually  per  inhabitant  for  school  purposes.  The  State 
has  long  had  a  compulsory  attendance  law  covering  the  ages 
from  7  to  15,  and  few  states  have  a  lower  rate  of  illiteracy. 
The  old  district  plan  of  school  supervision  has  given  way  to 
town  management  and  to  management  by  two  or  more  towns 
uniting  for  the  purpose.  In  1907  the  whole  number  of  those 
of  school  age  in  the  State,  5  years  to  21,  was  209,950;  the  num- 
ber of  different  scholars  registered  in  the  public  schools  during 
the  year  was  131,671.  There  were  3,989  public  schoolhouses 
in  the  State  and  the  estimated  value  of  the  school  property  was 
$6,151,746.  The  amount  expended  on  the  public  schools  of  the 
State  in  1907  was  $2,040,285.  There  were  4,698  female  teach- 
ers and  460  male  teachers  employed.  The  State  maintains 
Normal  schools  at  Farmington,  Castine,  Gorham  and  Presque 


56  MAINE    REFERENCE    MANUAL. 

Isle  and  there  are  Normal  departments  at  several  seminaries  and 
institutes.  The  institutions  of  higher  education  are  Bowdoin 
College  at  Brunswick,  dating  from  1794;  Colby  College,  which 
was  established  as  Waterville  College  in  1820;  Bates  College 
at  Lewiston,  established  in  1863, 'and  the  University  of  Maine 
at  Orono  which  has  developed  from  the  Maine  State  College 
of  Agriculture  and  the  Alechanic  Arts  which  was  established 
in  1868.  There  are  also  the  Bangor  Theological  Seminary  at 
Bangor,  dating  from  1814,  and  St.  Mary's  College  at  Van 
Buren,  established  in   1887. 

But  the  greatest  glory  of  Maine  is  not  in  its  civil  history,  its 
military  record,  its  political  institutions,  its  industrial  develop- 
ment, its  educational  progress,  its  material  prosperity,  its  wealth 
of  resources  or  its  natural  attractions.  These  things  are  themes 
for  chapters  in  the  story  of  our  State,  and  the  knowledge  of 
them  makes  us  love  it  more,  but  the  proudest  boast  of  Maine  is 
the  sons  it  has  given  to  the  world.  These  are  the  real  test  of  a 
state's  greatness,  and  measured  by  such  a  test  the  State  of 
Maine  has  justified  its  motto  of  "Dirigo."  Let  us  mention 
briefly  a  few  of  the  great  names  that  Maine  can  claim,  names 
which  the  world  knows  and  which  the  passing  years  will  not 
dim. 

To  statesmanship  and  the  great  realm  of  public  affairs  Maine 
has  given  Sir  William  Phipps,  George  Evans,  Sargent  Prentiss, 
Jonathan  Cilley,  William  Pitt  Fessenden,  John  A.  Andrew, 
Hannibal  Hamlin,  Lot  M.  Morrill,  the  Washburn  brothers,

Minnesota,  Gibson  of  Montana  and  Perkins  of  California,  Gov- 
ernor Dole  of  Hawaii,  Governor  Pingree  of  Michigan,  and 
scores  of  others  who  have  attained  eminence  in  public  office  in 
this  and  in  many  other  states  as  governors,  as  members  of  Con- 
gress, as  judges  and  in  various  offices  of  distinction.  No  other 
state  ever  produced  such  a  family  as  the  Washburn  family  of 
Livermore.  This  one  family  gave  to  the  public  service  one 
United  States  senator,  four  members  of  Congress  from  four 
different  states,  two  foreign  ministers,  two  governors  of  two 
different  states,  one  major  general  in  the  army  and  one  captain 
in  the  navy. 

Among  those  who  have  gained  fame  in  the  stern  work  of  war 
Maine  claims  such  leaders  as  Sir  William  Pepperell,  Gen.  Henry 
Knox,  Gen.  Henry  Dearborn,  Commodore  Edward  Preble,  Gen. 
Oliver  Otis  Howard,  Gen.  Joshua  L.  Chamberlain,  Gen.  Berry, 
Gen.  Selden  Connor  and  Gen.  Thomas  W.  Hyde. 

To  literature  Maine  has  given  Henry  Wadsworth  Longfellow, 
Nathaniel  P.  Willis,  Seba  Smith,  the  Abbott  family,  Elijah 
Kellogg,  Sarah  Orne  Jewett,  Rebecca  Sophia  Clark,  Edward 
Stanwood,  Arlo  Bates,  Charles  A.  Stephens,  Martha  Baker 
Dunn,  Laura  E.  Richards,  Edwin  Arlington  Robinson,  Holman 
F,  Day  and  a  host  of  others  of  lesser  fame,  but  whose  works 
have  strength  and  beauty  and  the  elements  of  permanency.  To 
music  and  art  Maine  has  given  Annie  Louise  Cary,  Emma 
Eames,  Madame  Nordica,  Franklin  Simmons,  the  sculptor, 
Alfred  Stone,  the  architect,  and  Eastman  Johnson,  the  painter; 
to  the  stage,  Sol  Smith  Russell,  Richard  Golden,  Dustin  Farn- 
ham  and  Maxine  Elliott.  Among  Maine  men  whose  scientific 
achievements  the  world  has  honored  may  be  mentioned  Parker 
Cleveland,  Fordyce  Barker,  Sir  Hiram  Maxim  and  Robert  E. 
Peary. 

To  educational  work  Maine  has  given  such  men  as  Nathan 
Lord,  for  35  years  president  of  Dartmouth,  President  Harris  of 
Amherst,   President   Mosher  of   Hillsdale   College,    Chancellor

Day  of  Syracuse  University,  Albert  K.  Smiley,  the  founder  and 
patron  saint  of  the  Mohonk  Conference,  Mary  J.  Garland,  the 
pioneer  in  kindergarten  work  in  America,  and  many  great  teach- 
ers of  far-reaching  influence  whose  names  have  long  been  hon- 
ored and  beloved  at  our  own  Maine  colleges.  In  the  great 
world  of  business  affairs  we  find  such  sons  of  Maine  as  William 
Deering  of  Chicago,  the  harvester  king ;  Melville  E.  Ingalls  of 
Cincinnati,  the  Western  railroad  magnate ;  Jacob  L.  Greene, 
president  for  30  years  of  the  Connecticut  Mutual  Life  Insurance 
Company ;  John  F.  Dryden  of  New  Jersey,  the  builder  and  head 
of  the  great  Metropolitan  Insurance  Company;  Thomas  H. 
Hubbard  of  New  York,  banker,  railroad  man  and  philan- 
thropist ;  Frank  H.  Munsey,  who  has  revolutionized  the  maga- 
zine business ;  Henry  V.  Poor,  the  country's  leading  railroad 
statistician ;  Henry  W.  Poor,  railroad  president  and  banker ; 
Charles  W.  Morse  of  New  York,  organizer  of  ice  trust  and 
steamboat  trust ;  Francis  H.  Clergue,  organizer  of  stupendous 
industrial  and  transportation  enterprises  in  western  Canada ; 
Charles  C.  Stickney  of  St.  Paul,  railroad  president ;  E.  C.  Allen, 
founder  of  Augusta's  publishing  industries ;  the  Ricker  brothers 
of  Poland  Spring,  the  greatest  summer  hotel  men  in  the  world ; 
John  F.  Stevens,  for  a  time  at  the  head  of  the  Panama  canal 
commission ;  Eben  Jordan,  the  great  Boston  merchant ;  and 
Edwin  Ginn  and  Dana  Estes,  the  publishers. 

To  journalism  Maine  has  given  such  names  as  Crosby  S. 
Noyes  of  the  Washington  Star,  Edwin  B.  Haskell  of  the  Boston 
Herald,  Edward  P.  Mitchell  of  the  New  York  Sun,  and  Morrill 
Goddard  of  the  New  York  Journal ;  to  theology  such  names  as 
Samuel  Harris,  Henry  B.  Smith,  Roswell  Dwight  Hitchcock, 
Newman  Smyth,  Egbert  C.  Smyth,  John  S.  Sewallj  Charles 
Carroll  Everett,  Edwin  Pond  Parker,  Bishop  Spaulding  of  Colo- 
rado, Charles  Fletcher  Dole,  Minot  J.  Savage  and  the  Abbotts ; 
to  the  work  of  spreading  Christianity  in  dark  and  distant  lands 
such  great  missionaries  as  Cyrus  Hamlin,  George  Dana  Board- 


MAINE    REFERENCE    MANUAL.  59 

man,  Americus  Fuller,  Daniel  Dole  and  James  Liddell  Phillips. 
Maine  has  given  to  the  good  cause  of  making  the  old  world 
laugh  such  names  as  Artemus  Ward  and  Bill  Nye.  In  the  work 
of  temperance  legislation  no  name  is  better  known  than  that  of 
the  pioneer  in  this  cause.,  Neal  Dow  of  Maine.  In  the  great 
organization  of  women  banded  together  "for  God  and  home  and 
every  land,"  no  name  is  higher  than  that  of  Lillian  M.  N.  Ste- 
vens, long  its  national  leader.  In  Masonry,  the  greatest  of  all 
secret  orders,  no  American  name  is  more  revered  than  that  of 
Josiah  H.  Drummond.  Among  all  the  great  anti-slavery  agita- 
tors in  the  years  before  the  war  none  worked  with  more  impas- 
sioned zeal  than  Elijah  and  Owen  Love  joy,  the  former  dying  a 
martyr's  death  at  the  hands  of  a  mob  in  Illinois. 

The  list  is  incomplete  enough,  but  it  indicates  something  of 
the  part  that  Maine  has  played  in  American  history  as  a  Mother 
of  Men.  The  contemplation  of  such  a  roll  of  honor  brings  to 
our  minds  a  realization  of  the  true  glory  whose  luster  sheds  its 
deathless  radiance  upon  the  name  of  Maine.  The  past  of  our 
State  is  secure,  and  who  can  doubt  its  future?

Agrictilttira.1  Statistics. 


(From  the  United  States  Census  Report.) 

Maine  has  a  total  land  area  of  29,895  square  miles,  of  which 
9,844  square  miles,  or  32.9%,  are  included  in  farms.  The  sur- 
face consists  of  two  great  slopes,  the  northern  and  the  southern. 
The  northern  slope,  comprising  about  one-third  of  the  total  area, 
is  drained  by  the  St.  John  river  and  its  tributaries,  the  southern 
slope  by  numerous  streams  which  flow  into  the  Atlantic.  The 
broad,  flat  divide  which  separates  the  two  slopes  serves  as  a 
natural  reservoir,  most  of  the  rivers  of  the  State  having  their 
sources  in  the  large  lakes  of  this  region.  Some  of  the  lakes 
have  outlets  on  both  sides  of  the  watershed. 

The  surface  of  a  large  part  of  the  State  is  rugged  and  broken. 
The  soil  of  the  river  valleys  is  very  productive,  but  in  the  moun- 
tainous regions  and  along  the  sea  coast  it  is  for  the  most  part 
sterile.  The  Aroostook  Valley,  which  comprises  the  largest  area 
of  fertile  farming  land  in  New  England,  has  a  deep,  porous, 
yellow  loam,  especially  adapted  to  the  growing  of  fruits  and 
vegetables.  This  section  has  developed  remarkably  during  the 
last  decade. 

NUMBER   AND   SIZE  OF   FARMS   IN   THE   STATE. 

The  following  table  gives,  by  decades  since  1850,  the  number 
of  farms,  the  total  and  average  acreage,  and  the  per  cent,  of 
farm  land  improved.

Mistofty  of  Benton 


EARLY  SETTLEMENT 

Sometime  about  1775  George  Fitzgerald  and  David 
Gray  came  from  Ireland,  and  settled  near  each  other,  about 
a  mile  north  of  what  is  now  Benton  Station.  Several  years 
later  one  Gibson  settled  about  two  miles  north  of  the  Sta- 
tion, on  the  present  river  road.  Previous  to  1777  Stephen 
Goodwin  from  Bowdoiuham  located  at  Goodwin's  Corner. 
About  1783  Gershom  Flagg  from  Lancaster,  Mass.,  settled 
on  the  west  bank  of  the  Sebasticook,  and  received  from  the 
Plymouth  Company  the  grant  of  a  strip  of  land,  fifteen 
miles  long  by  half  a  mile  wide,  for  his  services  in  the  con- 
struction of  Fort  Halifax.  It  is  further  related  that  he 
gave  a  portion  of  this  land  to  his  brother-in-law,  Hon.  Jo- 
seph North  of  Augusta,  who  had  surveyed  for  him.  About 
1779  Job  Roundy  removed  from  Ljnn,  Mass.,  to  land  north 
of  what  is  now  Benton  Village,  and  began  clearing  the  farm 
later  occupied  in  part  by  his  aged  son,  William,  who  was 
born  on  the  place  in  ISOG.  About  1790,  about  a  mile  south 
of  East  Benton,  John  Denico,  Simon  Brown  and  Mr.  Ander- 
son took  up  land  on  the  present  lower  Albion  road,  and 
previous  to  1800  Solomon  Peck,  a  revolutionary  pensioner, 


162  BENTON 

came  from  Vermont  and  began  farming  iu  a  primitive  way, 
on  the  west  bank  of  the  Sebasticook  below  Benton  Falls. 
These  were  among  the  earliest  settlers  of  whom  any  record 
can  be  obtained;  but  from  the  year  1800  down  the  list  grows 
larger.  A  curious  document  still  extant  gives  "An  Inven- 
tory of  the  Real  &  Personal  Estate  of  the  Inhabitants  and 
non-resident  Proprietors  of  the  Town  of  Clinton,  taken  by 
the  Assessors  of  said  Town,  May  1st,  1800."  According  to 
this  paper  thirty-nine  persons  (many  of  whose  names  will 
be  hereafter  mentioned)  were  assessed,  the  total  tax  on  their 
real  estate  being  $511. 9G  and  on  their  personal  estate 
$354.83. 

Among  the  settlers  in  Benton  at  the  beginning  of  the 
present  century  were  Joseph  and  James  North,  the  latter 
the  father  of  the  historian,  Hon.  James  W.  The  brothers 
were  engaged  in  trade  and  lumbering,  but  James  dying, 
February  10,  1812,  Joseph  removed  to  Augusta.  In  1812, 
Dr.  Whiting  Robinson  came  from  Albion  and  bought  the 
David  Reed  farm  of  Timothy,  son  of  Ebenezer  Heald.  In 
181G  he  bought  of  William  Fellow  the  farm  north  of  that 
then  occupied  by  Dominicus  Getchell,  where  he  died  about 
1853.  Getchell  conveyed  his  farm,  iu  February,  1822,  to 
John  Reed.  Next  north  of  this  farm  lived  Doctor  Bowman, 
who  died  previous  to  181 G.  Dr.  Stephen  Thayer  came  from 
Fairfield  prior  to  183G  and  was  located  for  a  year  or  two  at 
what  is  now  Benton  village.  The  John  0.  Fowler  farm,  on 
the  east  side  of  the  Sebasticook,  was  first  settled  by  one 
Barnes,  nearly  a  century  ago.  Just  north  of  this  farm 
Samuel  Fowler,  father  of  John  0.,  settled    early  in  the  cen- 


HISTORICAL  163 

tury.  Across  the  river  from  him  lived  "Squire"  Stinchfield, 
over  ninety  years  ap;o.  His  son,  Captain  John  H.,  and  Cap- 
tain Trial  Hall,  occupied  farms  in  this  vicinity,  and  in  Cap- 
tains Hall's  barn  the  town  of  old  Clinton  held  its  meeting 
for  a  number  of  years.. 

On  the  road  from  Sebasticook  river  to  Clinton  Town 
House  were  two  early  farmers— Charles  Ames  and  Isaac 
Holt.  Colonel  Reed  was  an  old  settler.  Previous  to  1820 
Isaac  Spencer  built  the  house  called  "The  Star  and  Eagle" 
(from  a  curious  device  which  he  placed  over  the  front  door). 
It  stands  about  a  mile  above  the  Falls,  on  the  east  side  of 
the  river,  and  was  later  owned  by  Asher  H.  Barton,  Sumner 
Hodgkins  and  Mrs.  Loudon  Brown. 

In  April,  1820,  the  Reed  Spencer  farm  was  deeded  to 
Hobart  Richardson.  In  the  same  year  Henry  Sleeper  and 
Samuel  Hudson  bought  of  Peter  Grant  one  undivided  half 
of  the  lot  afterward  known  as  the  Ford  and  Hudson  lot.  In 
1824  Amos  Barton  deeded  the  Joseph  IJurd  farm  to  Jonah 
Crosby.  About  1830  Thomas  J.  Hinds  bought  the  mile 
square,  and  in  June,  1833,  sold  it  to  Steward  Hunt;  and  in 
October,  1831,  Johnson  and  Samuel  Lunt  convej'ed  to  the 
Stiuchfields,  house  lots  back  of  the  brick  store  in  Benton 
Village.  Still  other  old  settlers  in  this  neighborhood  were 
Abram  Roundy,  brother  of  Job,  who  lived  on  the  east  side 
of  the  Sebasticook,  and  died  between  1850  and  1860;  Na- 
thaniel Brown,  who  lived  on  the  Albion  road  and  died  in 
the  fifties;  and  Moody  Brown,  who  occupied  a  farm  next  east 
o1  Nathaniel.

EAST    BENTON 

At  East  Benton  the  number  of  early  settlers  included 
the  following:  Andrew  Spaulding,  1823,  who  took  up  a 
farm  near  Roswell  Paul's  land;  Samuel  Spauldino-  who  came 
in  1831  and  purchased  about  all  the  land  formerly  held  by 
Denico,  Brown  and  Anderson;  Capt.  Andrew  Kichardson 
about  this  time  settled  about  half  a  mile  west  of  the  Wil- 
liam Paul  farm,  which  place  he  bought  of  the  proprietors 
through  Reuel  Williams  of  Augusta;  John  Spaulding,  near 
Roswell  Paul's  land;  Noah  Paul,  who  came  from  Hallowell 
about  1830  and  settled  on  the  lower  Albion  road;  Josiah 
Holliagsworth  and  Solomon  Hinds,  who  came  some  time 
between  1830  and  1840  and  settled  on  a  part  of  the  Denico, 
Brown  and  Anderson  tract. 

brown's  corner 

At  Brown's  Corner,  now  generally  known  as  Benton 
Station,  an  early  comer  was  Dr.  Ezekiel  Brown,  a  former 
surgeon  in  the  Continental  Army.  His  house  sat  at  the 
corner  of  the  road  leading  to  the  bridge.  Isaiah  Brown 
also  lived  here  about  1815. 

About  two  miles  north  of  this,  on  the  river  road,  lived 
Samuel  Gibson.  About  1800  Timothy  Hudson  erected  a 
house,  as  did  also  James  Gray.

INCORPORATION 


The  first  entry  in  the  records  of  the  town  of  Benton  is 
"an  act  to  divide  the  town  of  Clinton,  and  to  incorporate 
the  town  of  Sebasticook."  The  act  received  the  Governor's 
approval  on  March  16,  1842.  Eight  years  after,  on  March 
4,  the  town  voted  to  instruct  the  selectmen  to  report  a  new 


HISTORICAL  167 

name  for  the  town.  They  settled  upon  Benton,  in  honor  of 
Thomas  Hart  Benton.  The  name  was  approved  by  the  Lrg- 
islature,  and  since  1850  the  town  has  ably  supported  its 
honorable  title. 

In  1800  the  Kennebec  river  road  was  laid  out;  in  1835 
the  Norcross  road  at  East  Benton  was  accepted,  and  about 
1855  the  Clinton  road  from  East  Benton  was  put  through. 
The  Unity  road  was  laid  out  in  1810.  The  road  from  Hans- 
com's  Mills  to  Albion,  on  the  north  side  of  Fifteen-mile 
stream,  was  laid  out  between  1850  and  1860;  that  from 
Benton  Falls  to  Albion,  called  the  lower  road,  was  laid  out 
about  1820-3;  the  Harris  road,  from  Albion  lower  road  to 
WineloW',  was  laid  out  in  1867;  the  road  from  the  old  Asher 
Hinds  house,  on  the  Sebasticook  river  road,  to  the  old 
Smiley  house  in  Winslow,  was  laid  out  previous  to  1830; 
the  road  from  Unity  road  to  Clinton  line,  near  John  Rich- 
ardson's house,  was  laid  out  in  1852;  and  the  road  from  the 
Kennebec  river  road  to  the  east  end  of  Fairfield  bridge  was 
laid  out  in  1847.  The  covered  bridge  between  Benton  and 
Fairfield  was  built  in  1848.  It  was  made  free  in  1873. 
Bunker's  island,  between  the  two  towns,  was  set  off  from 
Benton  to  Fairfield  several  years  ago.  Previous  to  the 
building  of  the  bridge  Jacob  Ames  kept  a  ferry  for  teams 
and  foot  passengers,  about  half  a  mile  north  of  Benton 
station.  The  railroad  bridge,  that  formerly  crossed  the 
river  from  Fairfield  to  Benton  above  the  covered  bridge, 
was  built  in  1858-9,  and  burned  in  1873.  The  bridge  at 
Benton  Falls  was  built  in  the  fall  of  1869.  The  so-called 
artificial  bridge  at  Benton  village  was  built  in  1887.    At  the 


168  BENTON 

same  spot,  about  twenty  years  ago,  stood  a  covered  bridge, 
which  was  carried  away  by  a  freshet  about  1871.  A  short 
distance  above  this  bridge  stood  another, — built  in  1850, 
but  was  carried  away  prior  to  the  building  of  the  village 
bridge.  A  toll  bridge  was  built  just  below  Benton  Falls  pre- 
vious to  1800.  It  was  carried  away  several  times,  but  the 
last  being  about  1871,  after  which  it  was  never  rebuilt.  The 
town  house  (formerly  Israel  Herrin's  store),  stands  in  Ben- 
ton village  just  south  of  the  brick  store,  on  the  opposite 
side  of  the  road.  It  was  purchased  by  the  town  for  its  pres- 
ent purpose  Nov.  6,  1860.  Previous  to  this,  town  meetings 
were  held  in  No.  5  schoolhouse.  at  the  Falls. 


INDUSTRIAL  ACCOUNT 

1800 — Capt.  Andrew  Richardson  built  a  saw  mill  on  theeast 
side  of  the  Sebasticook  at  Benton  Village.  Ten  years 
prior  two  saw  mills  were  erected  by  Job  Lacy  and  Abram 
Roundy  and  others  back  of  the  J.  O.  Fowler  farm. 

1810— Jeremiah  Hunt  engaged  in  the  tanning  business  and 
for  several  years  after, 

1830— Thomas  J.  Hinds  built  a  saw  mill  about  two  miles 
from  the  mouth  of  Fifteen-mile  stream.  He  sold  in  1835 
to  Steward  Hunt  who  added  a  shingle  mill.  This  same 
year  VVm.  Dewey,  Harlow  Spaulding,  Wm.  L.  Wheeler, 
Geo.  Perkins  and  Jno.  Mulliken  bought  for  |32,000  all 
the  mills  on  the  Sebasticook  and  also  three  farms.  In 
1852  they  sold  the  last  of  the  property. 


HISTORICAL  169 

1820  to  1830— Between  these  years  Isaac  Spencer,  Sr.,  and 
Isaac  Jr.,  owned  two  saw  mills  ab  Benton;  Capt.  J.  H. 
Stinchfield,  a  dye  and  cardinj;-  mill;  and  Martin  Bisbee,  a 
tannery.  Afterwards  Gershom  Flao^p;  built  and  operated 
a  grist  mill  at  the  Falls. 

1810— Jonah  and  Otis  Crosby  built  a  saw  and  grist  mill  in 
the  south  eastern  part  of  the  town.  Previous  to  this 
date  Nelson,  Jesse  and  Thos.  Norcross  built  shingle  mills 
on  the  Fifteen-Mile  Stream,  selling  later  to  Jos.  Eaton 
and  he  to  David  Hanscom  who  installed  a  gang  of  saws 
and  a  planer.  Alter  being  burned  and  rebuilt  the  mills 
were  finally  burned  and  never  rebuilt.  About  this  time 
Jos.  Hurd  and  Amos  Foss  built  a  mill  on  the  stream 
below  Crosby's. 

1854— Hiram  Pishon  and  Daniel  Ayer  built  a  tannery  on 
Fifteen-Mile  stream;  about  ten  years  later  Crosby  and 
Walker  built  a  brush  block  and  handle  factory  at  the 
Falls,  Heath  and  Crosby  were  also  engaged  in  the  man- 
ufacture of  wooden  shoe  soles  from  1879  to  1882. 

1872 — A  potato  planter  factor}-  was  started  in  the  John 
Palmer  carriage  shop  by  J.  L,  True,  H,  L.  Crosby,  John 
B.  and  A.  G.  Clifford.  The  business  was  sold  a  few  years 
later  to  Benjamin  &  Allen  of  Oakland. 

Benton's  principle  industry  is  the  box  board  mill  at  the 
Falls,  controlled  by  the  United  Box  Board  and  Paper  Co. 
At  this  mill  formerly  a  grist  mill,  was  begun  the  first  pulp 
grinding  in  the  state,  making  it  the  pioneer  of  that  great 
industry  throughout  the  state  of  Maine.  Joseph  Given  of 
Brunswick  converted  the  old  grist  mill  into  a  two  grinder 


170  BENTON 

pulp  mill  and  organized  the  Kennebec  Fiber  Co. 

Later  the  Somerset  &  Kennebec  Co.  was  organized,  and 
ia  1899  the  electric  railroad  running  between  Benton  Falls 
and  Fairfield  was  built  for  carrying  the  supplies  and  product 
of  the  mill  and  to  accommodate  the  public.  The  road  is 
operated  by  the  same  company  as  the  mill  but  under  a  sepa- 
rate management.  Since  1902  the  present  management  has 
runthe  mill.  About  100  men  are  employed  when  runningon 
hill  time,  receiving  from  |4000  to  fSOOO  in  wages  monthly. 
About  25  tons  of  box  boards  are  produced  daily.  The 
United  Box  Board  and  Paper  Co.  controls  the  Sebasticook 
water  supply  from  its  sources  at  Newport  and  Moose  Pond. 

John  E.  Brown's  stone  cutting  and  monumental  works 
at  Benton  is  an  important  industry.

ECCLESIASTICAL 


CONGREGATIONALIST 


Early  in  the  century  there  was  no  church  building  in 
Benton,  services  being  occasionally  held  in  No.  5  school- 
house  by  two  old  clergymen  known  as  "Parson"  Adams  and 
"Parson"  Lovejoy.  The  only  church  edifice  for  many  years 
in  town  built  previous  to  1828  was  on  the  east  side  of  the 


172  BENTON 

Sebasticook,  on  the  Winslow  and  Clinton  road,  overlooking 
the  Falls.  Though  always  belonging  to  the  Congregation- 
alists,  the  structure  was  used  by  them  in  common  with  the 
Baptists, Universalists  and  Methodists  since  there-organiza- 
tion of  the  church  on  July  16,  1858.  The  re-organization 
alluded  to  was  necessitated  by  the  loss  of  the  old  records? 
previous  to  1858.  Under  the  original  organization  there 
was  no  settled  pastor  for  a  number  of  years;  then  Rev.  Nel- 
son Bishop  was  installed,  sometime  previous  to  1845.  His 
successors  have  been:  Reverends  George  Tewksbury,  1852- 
53;  James  M.  Palmer,  1853-55;  Benjamin  P.  Dodge,  1856" 
58;  F.  P.  Smith,  1858;  Henry  M.  Vail,  1859-60;  F.  P.  Smith,

A.  N.  Small,  1883;  T.  P.  Williams,  1883-92.  (We  have  not 
obtained  the  list  from  this  time). 

METHODIST  CHURCH 

In  1892  the  Methodist  chapel  at  Benton  was  erected  by 
the  Methodist  society  and  is  considered  part  of  the  Clinton 
charge.  The  chapel  is  located  on  the  west  side  of  the  Sebas- 
ticook river  and  is  a  very  convenient  and  pretty  church 
home.    For  a  list  of  pastors  see  under  Clinton  M.  E.  church. 

FRIENDS  CHURCH 

At  East  Benton  is  located  the  new  Friends  church  build- 


HISTORICAL  173 

ing  erected  in  1900.  It  was  dedicated  on  October  lOtb,  of 
that  year.  The  credit  for  building  the  church  belongs  to 
Rev.  Marcus  Thomas  in  company  with  the  thoroughly  loyal 
members  of  tne  Society  and  community. 

At  the  time  of  the  dedication  of  the  church  Rev.  Everlon 
Prescott  was  the  pastor. 

Rev.  Wm,  Fletcher  of  Waterville  is  pastor  of  the  Falls 
Baptist  church. 


EDUCATIONAL  NOTES 

There  were  in  Benton  nine  school  districts  at  the  time  of 
incorporation,  and  since  then  another  district  has  been 
added.  Each  contains  a  comfortable  and  well  appointed 
schoolhouse,  uniform  text  books  are  used,  and  the  entire 
school  property  is  valued  about  $3,500.  Usually  a  high 
school  was  maintained  in  No.  5  schoolhouse  at  the  Falls; 
but  the  proximity  of  Waterville  offered  advantages  in  higher 
education  with  which  it  was  useless  for  Benton  to  compete. 
No.  5  schoolhouse  stands  on  the  site  of  old  Clinton  Acad- 
emy. This  latter  building  was  begun  about  1830,  by  acora- 
pany  of  citizens,  who  proposed  making  of  it  a  female  college. 
The  company,  however,  were  unable  to  complete  the  struc- 
ture, and  accordingly  turned  it  over  to  the  Methodist  soci- 
ety, which  finished  it  and  threw  open  its  doors  to  scholars  of 
both  sexes.  About  1858  the  Methodist  society  deeded  the 
academy  to  Hobart  Richardson,  who  deeded  it  to  Daniel  H. 


174  BENTON 

Brown;  and  in  July,  1859,  Brown  deeded  it  to  Asher  H. 
Barton,  Eliza  S.  Barton,  Joseph  C,  Richardson,  William  P. 
Heald,  Albert  D.  Hinds,  Isaac  Abbott,  Albert  Ludwig, 
George  W.  Reed  and  William  K.  Lunt.  They  sold  it  to  dis- 
trict No.  5  in  the  same  month,  reserving  the  right  to  hold  a 
high  school  in  it  for  two  terms  a  year.  The  building  was 
destroyed  by  fire  in  1870.  It  was  rebuilt  in  1871,  and  in 
1883  an  attractive  hall  was  finished  off  in  the  upper  story.

DAM  BUILDERS 


Many  of  the  leading  men  of  Benton  have  given  their 
chief  attention  to  building  stone  and  wooden  dams,  and 
bridge  abutments.  The  maddening  rush  of  nearly  every 
river  in  New  England  has  been  checked  by  the  labor  of  these 
men,  who  face  many  dangers  in  their  difficult  occupation;  nor 
is  their  work  confined  to  New  England,  for  several  dams  at 
Plattsburg,  N.  Y,,  on  the  Saranac  river,  while  many  scat- 
tered throughout  Cape  Breton,  Canada  and  Ontario,  are  of 
their  construction.  Five  substantial  structures  of  this 
nature  at  Berlin  Falls,  and  others  at  Rumford  Falls,  Liver- 
more  Falls  and  many  more,  are  monuments  to  their  skill 
and  perseverance.  Among  those  who  have  participated  in 
this  work,  and  have  had  the  direction  of  crews,  are  the  fol- 
lowing: Wesley  Brown,  Fred  E.  Brown,  Joseph  Spencer,  Bert 
Morrill,  George  Crosby,  Edward  Rideout,  Otis  Brown  and 
Ferd  Marcia.

INDUSTRIAL  ACCOUNT 

About  1833  David  Hunter,  1st,  ("King  David"),  David 
2d,  and  James  his  brother,  built  the  first  saw  mills  where 


HISTORICAL  179 

the  present  mills  now  stand;  and  in  1834  David  Hunter  1st, 
David  2d,  and  Jonathan  Brown  erected  a  grist  mill  on  the 
site  of  that  now  in  operation.  Cain  and  Webber's  roller 
mill  was  established  20  years  ago  by  Mr,  Webber  and  others, 
Mr.  Cain  entering  the  partnership  about  three  j'ears  later. 
They  have  a  store  in  connection  and  do  about  $15,000 
worth  of  business  annually.  These  men  are  also  extensive 
lumber  dealers,  buying  timber  lots  and  clearing  off  the 
lumber. 

On  the  island  opposite  the  village  w^as  once,  in  1836,  a 
shingle  machine  owned  primarily  by  E.  G.  Hodgdon,  David 
Hunter  1st,  and  others,  but  afterwards  run  by  James 
Spaulding.  About  1850  it  was  changed  into  a  brush  fac- 
tory, the  owners  being  two  Vermont  men.  After  three  or 
four  years  they  sold  it  to  Justin  Brown,  who  for  a  time  man- 
ufactured staves  in  the  building.  Brown  sold  to  A,  R. 
Mitchell  &  Co.,  who  erected  a  large  building  for  the  manu- 
facture of  croquet  sets  and  brush  handles.  This  firm  failed, 
however,  and  the  factor^"  was  set  off  to  the  creditors. 
Shortly  after  this,  about  1885,  the  factory  was  burned  to 
the  ground.  In  1881  Arthur  McNally  bought  the  land  and 
the  privilege.  Later  he  built  the  saw"  mill  which  he  sold  to 
Manly.  Morrison  in  1898.  Fifteen  men  are  employed  in  this 
mill  and  a  large  amount  of  business  done  annually. 

As  early  as  1840  a  carding  mill  was  built  by  Billings  & 
Stinchfield,  near  the  old  Hunter  grist  mill,  Billings  after- 
wards bought  out  Stinchfleld  and  conducted  the  business 
until  he  died.  Jesse  Dorman  bought  the  plant  and  run  it 
until  1890,  when  he  sold  it  to  AVilliam  Lamb. 


180  CLINTON 

Mr.  Lamb  ran  a  saw  mill  until  1894  when  it  was  totally 
destroyed  at  the  event  of  the  second  big  fire.  A  roller  mill 
was  built  by  Will  Richardson  and  Maurice  Kendall,  and 
opened  in  the  fall  of  1899.  The  following  May  Alpheus  Rich- 
ardson bought  out  Will  Richardson,  and  afterward  assumed 
lull  control. 

TANNERY 

The  tannery  was  built  in  1890  by  Jonathan  B.  Besse, 
and  is  now  owned  and  operated  by  his  son,  Frank  L.  Besse. 
The  leather  tanned  is  mostly  sheepskin  and  is  used  for  shoe 
linings.  The  tannery  has  a  capacity  for  tanning  3000  skins 
a  day,  employing  about  20  men.  The  average  monthly  pay 
roll  is  about  |750.  One  thousand  cords  of  hemlock  bark 
are  used  each  year  at  the  tannery. 

Spaulding  and  Davis'  Novelty  business  has  developed 
into  an  important  industry  within  the  past  few  years.  They 
now  make  six  different  articles  of  household  use,  viz:  Clothes 
dryers,  ironing  tables,  wall  racks,  sleeve  boards,  lace  curtain 
stretchers,  and  the  last  one  added,  clothes  tongs.  Seven 
hands  are  employed.  Last  year  the  company  sold  21,027 
pieces. 

The  famous  Billings  axes  are  made  here  by  Geo.  P.  Bill- 
ings, whose  father  established  the  business  here  many  years 
ago.  A  sawmill  near  Pishon's  Ferry  is  in  active  operation, 
Geo.  Ricker  proprietor.

ECCLESIASTICAL 

Religious  worship  and  a  society  was  established  soon 
after  the  incorporation  of  the  town.  The  earliest  form  was 
the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  organized  about  1800. 
Reverends  D.  B.  Randall,  James  Farrington,  Theodore  Hill, 
Benj.  B.  Byrne  and  others  were  early  pastors.  In  1866-7 
the  edifice  on  Church  street  was  erected.  Over  .f3,000  was 
expended  in  1884  in  enlargingand  beautifying  the  buildings, 
erecting  a  chapel,  and  buying  the  parsonage.  The  present 
membership  is  about  sixty-five.  The  Benton  M.  E.  church 
is  also  considered  a  part  of  this  charge.  The  following  is  a 
list  of  pastors  since  the  records  have  been  preserved:  Revs. 
Hiram  Murth^^  1857;  Theodore  Hill,  1858;  Jesse  Harriman,

The  first  church  erected  in  the  village  was  the  old  Union 
church  built  about  1847,  and  jointly  occupied  by  the  Meth- 
odists, Congregationalists  and  Universalists. 

FREE  BAPTIST 

The  society  was  organized  in  February  1888,  with  but 
14  members.  The  church  is  located  on  Western  Ave.,  and 
cost  about  $4,000.  Rev.  Albert  D.  Dodge  was  the  first 
pastor,  serving  for  five  years,  when  he  was  followed  by  Rev. 
L.  S.  Williams  in  1893,  Rev.  E.  J.  Whitman  in  1898,  Rev.  S. 
Wakeley,  1901;  Edward  Foster,  1905;  J.  L.  Smith,  1908. 
Its  present  membership  is  about  70. 

A  Baptist  society  was  organized  at  Pishon's  Ferry, 
about  1800.  The  society  worshipped  in  District  No.  2 
schoolbouse  until  Good  Templars'  Hall  was  built  about 
thirty-five  years  ago,  after  which  time  services  were  held  in 
the  Hall  for  several  years.  The  Second  Free  Will  Baptist 
church  of  Clinton  was  organized  in  1874  at  Pishon's  Ferrj', 
with  about  fifty  members.  Until  1890  the  congregation 
worshipped  on  alternate  Sundays  in  Good  Templars'  Hall. 
On  that  date  they  erected  an  edifice  near  the  ferry  where 
they  have  since  worshipped.    Their  pastors  have  been  Revs.

The  Free  AVill  Baptist  Society  at  Morrison's  Corner  was 
organized  in  1827.  The  earl}'  meetings  were  held  in  the  dis- 
trict schoolhouse  but  a  church  erected  in  1850  stood  for 
over  fifty  years  when  it  was  burned.    This  society  is  extinct. 

The  Christian  Baptist  church  at  AVoodsom's  Corner,  on 
town  house  hill,  is  another  of  the  ancient  landmarks.  For 
many  years  Benj.  P.  Reed  served  as  pastor  of  this  society. 
He  was  succeeded  by  J.  A.  Johnson  and  the  Rev.  Mr.  Lang, 
the  last  regular  pastor. 


SCHOOLS 


The  history  of  the  public  schools  of  Clinton,  like  that  of 
other  Maine  towns,  is  the  story  of  the  founding  of  her  earl- 
iest school  by  the  first  settlers,  the  continual  struggle  of  her 
citizens  against  all  odds  to  give  to  their  children  the  advan- 
tages of  an  education.  The  new  school  building  opened  in 
the  fall  of  1902  in  the  village  fills  a  long  felt  need  and  puts 
the  school  facilities  of  this  live  town  on  a  footing  equal  to 
any  town  of  its  size  in  the  State.  There  are  three  grades, 
each  provided  with  its  own  instructor  and  arranged  in  regu- 


188  CLINTON 

lar  courses.  The  high  school  which,  until  six  years  ago  was 
held  throughout  the  town  at  the  different  school  buildings, 
is  now  permanently  located  here.  This  new  structure  was 
constructed  at  a  cost  of  |8000  and  is  entirel}"^  modern  in  its 
construction. 


DAM  BUILDERS 

The  town  of  Clinton  is  noted  among  other  things  for  the 
number  of  men  who  have  been  or  are  dam  builders.  The  fol- 
lowing have  been  in  charge  of  crews:  Alpheus  Brown,  John 
Kennedy,  Pooler  Lewis,  Bert  Lewis,  Ellis  Libb}^  Ezekiel 
Brown,  Geo.  Ricker,  Daniel  Richardson  and  Preston  Wey- 
mouth. Among  others  who  have  been  engaged  in  the  work 
of  dam  construction  are  the  following:  Alonzo  Pratt,  Frank 
McNelly,  William  McNelly,  Moses  Richardson,  Mark  Holt, 
James  McNelly,  Irvin  Lewis,  Frank  Crommett,  Hollis  Lewis, 
Lezar  Kelley,  Lewis  Wells,  George  Bingham,  Albert  Chase, 
T.  A.  Ricker. 


LIBRARY 

The  Brown  Memorial  library,  is  the  gift  of  one  of  her 
loyal  and  liberal  sons,  William  W.  Brown.  It  is  a  beautiful 
stone  building,  well  designed,  situated  on  Railroad  Street. 
It  was  dedicated  August  15,  1900,  since  which  time  its  well 
chosen  stacks  of  books  have  been  read  by  a  people  who  well 
appreciated  a  free  public  library.

THE  CLINTON   ADVERTISER 

The  Clinton  Advertiser  was  established  in  1877  by  B.  F. 
Foster  and  was  issued  semi-monthly.  It  was  an  eiofht  pa^e 
leaflet  G  x  7  inches.  It  has  been  published  continually.  In 
the  fall  of  1903  Mr.  Foster  sold  the  paper  to  Marcellus  Cain, 
the  present  publisher.  The  regular  weekly  issue  is  now  a 
welcome  visitor  to  almost  every  home  in  town.  Mr.  Cain 
has  definite  plans  for  enlarging  his  paper  in  the  near  future 
to  i>lace  it  on  an  equal  footing  with  other  local  publications.

Histony  of  Faiitfield 


EARLY  SETTLERS 

Fairfield  is  situated  on  the  western  side  of  the  Kennebec 
river,  three  miles  north  of  Waterville,  and  20  from  Augusta, 
It  is  the  most  southerly  town  in  Somerset  county,  and  is 
bounded  on  the  north  by  Norridgewock  and  Skowhegan,  on 
the  east  by  the  Kennebec  river,  on  the  south  by  Waterville 
and  Oakland  and  on  the  west  by  Smithfield.  Its  total  area 
is  about  42  square  miles.  It  is  probable  that  the  banks  of 
the  river  were  explored  long  before  any  permanent  settle- 
ments were  made,  as  the  river  formed  the  principle  thorough- 
fare then  in  use.  We  are  told  that  when  Colonel  Benedict 
Arnold  was  raising  volunteers  to  join  his  famous  expedition 
up  the  Kennebec  in  1775,  that  David  Emery  enlisted  in  Sep- 
tember that  year  leaving  his  farm  on  what  is  now  the  River 
road  in  this  town.  We  also  find  that  Samuel  Emery  was 
born  in  Fairfield,  June  15,  1773,  being  the  first  white  child 
born  in  this  town.  So  we  conclude  that  Mr.  Emery  was  the 
first  settler  that  we  have  any  record  of  at  this  time, 

Peter  Pushard  was  probably  the  first  to  locate  perma- 
nently in  the  southern  part  of  this  town.  His  cabin  was 
on  the  lot  now  occupied  by  tlie  beautiful  residence  of  Chas. 
Lawrence,  in  about  1774. 


194  FAiRFIELt) 

About  1780  William  Kendall  came  here  having  bought 
up  most  of  the  land  now  occupied  by  the  village.  Heerected 
a  log  cabin  near  the  upper  end  of  the  island  and  dug  the 
cellar  upon  which  he  not  long  after  built  the  first  frame 
house  in  the  village.  This  house  still  stands  and  is  now 
occupied  by  his  grandchildren,  Mrs.  Carter  and  Mr.  Wra.  F. 
Kendall.  In  1781  it  is  supposed  he  built  the  first  saw  and 
grist  mills.  These  he  located  on  the  upper  end  of  the  nut- 
ural  canal  which  has  furnished  power  for  so  many  mills  dur- 
ing the  past  century  and  a  quarter.  On  Christmas  day  1782 
he  married  Abagail  Chase  at  Noble's  Ferry,  near  the  jjresent 
Good  Will  Farm,  and  drifted  down  the  river  in  a  birch  canoe 
to  the  home  thus  prepared  in  the  wilderness.  Capt.  William 
Kendall,  a  soldier  of  the  Revolution,  enlisted  March  12, 
1777,  and  served  three  years.  He  with  Mr.  Emery,  who  was 
also  a  soldier,  is  buried  in  the  Emery  Burying  Ground. 

Elihu,  Harper,  and  Zaccheus  Bowerman  came  here  from 
Falmouth,  Mass.,  1782.  These  and  other  members  of  the 
same  family  settled  near  the  central  part  of  the  town  and 
were  among  the  leading  men  of  the  early  settlement,  as  well 
as  now  being  represented  by  many  prominent  descendants. 

Some  of  the  early  settlers  on  the  River  road  running 
south  of  David  Emery's,  who  has  already  been  mentioned, 
were  Capt.  Isaac  Chase,  who  had  five  sons  and  seven  daught- 
ers, all  of  his  sons  holding  some  military  office  during  their 
lives;  Esq.  Low,  who  settled  on  the  lot  afterward  sold  for  its 
water  power  and  upon  which  Shawmut  now  stands;  George 
Hobbs,  noted  for  moving  buildings;  Rev.  Wilson  Colcord, 
who  labored  on  his  farm  during  the  week,  and  in  the  pulpit 


HISTORICAL  195 

on  the  Sabbath;  Beiij.  Burrill,  Davin  Pearson,  known  as  the 
neatest,  and  perhaps  the  thriftiest  farmer  on  the  road;  Wil- 
son Colcord,  Jr.,  Timothy  Osborne,  Andrew  Hanson,  John

CHURCHES 

The  Friends  seem  to  have  been  the  first  to  do  active 
church  work  in  town,  beginning  about  1788. 

The  town  early  took  measures  to  secure  preaching.  In 
1793  they  raised  30  pounds  ( t30)  for  the  support  of  the 
gospel.    Two  years  after  the  incorporation  of  the  town,  it 


HISTORICAL  203 

was  voted  to  build  a  lueetiDg  house.  This  was  a  union 
house  and  built  at  Fairfield  Centre.  In  a  few  years  the  town 
sold  the  pews  to  purchasers,  some  of  whom  paid  as  hij^h  as 
$50  for  a  single  pew.  The  pew  owners  afterwards  deeded 
them  to  Hiram  Burgess,  and  he  to  the  town  in  1847,  for  the 
sum  of  |150.  For  two  years  previous  to  this  purchase  the 
subject  of  a  town  jhall  had  been  agitated,  one  party  striv- 
ing for  a  new  hall,  and  the  other  advocating  the  purchase 
of  the  old  meeting  house.  But  the  matter  was  amicably 
settled  by  the  purchase  of  that  original  meeting  house.  The 
Friends  house  was  built  at  North  Fairfield  about  10  years 
earlier  and  was  twice  rebuilt. 

FAIRFIELD    CENTRE    METHODIST    SOCIETY 

The  following  is  given  by  Mr.  Ansel  L.  Nye,  gathered 
from  various  sources,  chiefly  from  the  history  of  Methodism 
in  Maine,  by  Stephen  Allen  and  W.  H.  Pillsburj'. 

The  first  Methodist  sermon  preached  in  Fairfield  was  by 
Jesse  Lee,  March  5,  1794,  at  Fairfield  Centre.  He  preached 
here  again  Aug  24,  1808.  There  was  a  meeting  house  built 
here  in  the  early  settlement  of  the  town,  in  which  occasional 
meetings  were  held.  The  first  revival  was  in  1809,  under 
the  labors  of  Ebenezer  F.  Newell,  the  circuit  preacher.  For 
several  years  the  meetings  were  held  at  the  house  of  Elisha 
Nye.  The  present  meeting-house  was  built  as  a  Union  house 
in  1837. 

The  following  is  a  list  of  the  preachers  appointed  to 
this  charge  from  1821  to  1877.  This  church  is  now  united 
with  Fairfield  village  and  has  regular  preaching  on  Sunday

M.    E.    CHFKCH,    FAIRFIELD  VILLAGE 

The  following  account  is  taken  from  the  records  made 
by  Rev.  Ezekiel  Robinson,  up  to  1859,  and  added  to  by  suc- 
ceeding pastors. 

According  to  an  account  by  Rev.  Ezekial  Robinson,  the 
first  sermon  preached  by  a  Methodist  in  the  village,  then 
known  as  Kendalls  Mills,  was  by  Ezekial  Robinson,  in  the 
summer  of  1827. 

In  1831  Rev.  Joshua  Nye,  a  local  preacher,  began 
preaching  at  the  village,  preaching  regularly  once  a  month. 
Two  years  after  this  he  removed  to  the  village  where  he  re- 
mained until  his  death,  in  1856.  He  was  called  "Father 
Nye"  by  his  devoted  people. 


HISTORICAL  205 

Iq  1839  a  house  of  worship,  GO  feet  long  and  40  feet 
wide,  to  be  called  the  "Union  Meetino-house,"  was  built  and 
dedicated. 

In  1845  Rev.  J.  Thying  commenced  preaching  once  a 
month.    Father  Nye  preached  the  remaining  Sabbaths. 

In  1850  Rev.  Cornelius  Stone  was  appointed  the  regular 
pastor,  but  after  one  year  the  work  was  again  turned  over 
to  Father  Nye.  At  this  time  there  were  70  members  in  full 
standing. 

In  1852  the  church  was  owned  and  provided  for  equally 
by  the  Congregationalists  and  Methodists.  The  Methodists 
were  served  by  the  pastors  of  the  Waterville  charge  for  a 
few  years  until  1858,  when  Rev,  Mr.  Robinson  was  appoint- 
ed to  the  circuit.  Those  appointed  to  this  charge  succeed-

UNIVERSALIST 

The  Uuiverealists  sold  out  their  interests  in  the  union 
house  and  in  185G  built  the  Uaiversalist  Meeting:  house. 


20G  FAIRFIELD 

A  meeting  on  Nov.  10,  1885,  petitioned  for  bj  R.  H.  Aldrieh, 
V.  R.  Connor,  F.  P.  Wing,  J.  P.  Totman  and  H.  F.  Thomp- 
son, met  at  the  old  Universalist  church.  Rev.  R.  H.  Aldrieh 
was  the  first  pastor  of  the  organization.  In  188G  a  lot  was 
bought  by  subscription  for  the  location  of  a  new  church  on 
High  street,  but  it  was  decided  to  remodel  the  old  structure 
which  was  done  during  the  pastorate  of  Rev.  S.  G.  Davis, 
who  came  to  the  church  in  1889.  Rev.  E.  L.  Houghton 
came  to  the  church  in  1891.  After  1894  the  pulpit  was 
filled  by  supplies  until  the  arrival  of  Rev.  J.  F.  Rhodes  in 
1898.  The  pipe  organ,  run  by  water  motor,  was  purchased 
in  1898  by  subscription.  In  1902  Rev.  James  Peardon  be- 
came pastor.    F.  E.  Barton  is  the  present  pastor. 

BAPTIST    CHURCH 

The  Baptist  Society  was  organized  on  Sept.  18,  1876, 
with  twelve  charter  members,  in  the  Chapel  which  had  been 
dedicated  the  previous  year.  Rev.  B.  F.  Shaw  was  the  first 
pastor.  Rev.  D.  Pope  became  pastor  in  1878  for  one  year. 
Rev.  Frank  Jones  followed  him  remaining  but  three  months. 
Succeeding  pastors:  Rev.  C.  C.  Tilley  until  1882.  (During 
his  pastorate  the  parsonage,  situated  just  north  of  the 
church  on  Newhall  street  was  erected.)  Rev.  N.  D.  Curtis, 
1885  until  1891;  Rev.  A.  K.  P.  Small  from  1891  to  1893; 
Rev.  N.  T.  Dutton,  from  1893  to  1896;  Rev.  E.  N.  Fletcher, 
1896  to  '98;  Rev.  H.  M.  Ives,  1898  until  March  29,  1904. 

The  Chapel  was  improved  and  enlarged  in  1888,  costing 
12,600.  It  was  rededicated  Feb.  28,  1887.  The  bell  was 
hung  about  this  time,  the  gift  of  the  Newton  Baptist  Church.

CHURCH    OP    THE    IMMACULATE    HEART    OF    MARY 

Fairfield  has  been  a  mission  parish  since  1870  and  up 
to  the  time  of  the  appointment  of  Rev.  Louis  Berj^eron  it 
was  under  the  charge  of  the  pastor  of  the  church  at  Water- 
ville.  Rev.  Father  Halde  attended  for  a  long  time  and  Rev. 
Father  Charland,  who  is  the  present  pastor  of  St.  Francis 
de  Sales'  church  at  Waterville,  also  had  charge  for  a  number 
of  years. 

The  first  Chapel  was  put  up  in  1880,  but  it  was  soon 
seen  that  it  was  not  large  enough  to  accommodate  all  the 
Catholics.  Father  Charland  was  succeeded  by  Rev.  Louis 
Bergeron,  the  first  resident  pastor. 

The  corner  stone  of  the  new  church  building  was  laid  in 
August,  1892,  It  was  completed  the  next  year  and  dedi- 
cated the  16th  day  of  July,  1893. 

The  old  chapel,  moved  over  near  the  new  church  build- 
ing, is  now  used  as  a  wiuter  chapel  or  vestry. 

Father  Bergeron  was  succeeded  by  Fr.  P.  A,  Jouvin, 
Dec,  1,  1899.  Since  Fr.  Jouvin  took  charge  of  the  parish  he 
has  bought  a  rectory  at  a  cost  of  $2500  and  has  paid  |2000 
on  the  old  debt.  The  church  has  also  been  improved  and 
the  rectory  furnished. 

Besides  his  duties  in  Fairfield  village  Fr.  Jouvin  has 
charge  of  the  mission  at  Shawmut  where  there  is  a  good 
Catholic  community  of  about  40  families. 


208  FAIRFIELD 

SHAWM  DT    CHURCH 

The  church  edifice  at  Shawmut  was  erected  as  an  Episco- 
pal house  about  fifteen  years  ago.  Union  Church  Society 
was  also  formed  in  the  village  and  held  its  meetings  in  the 
old  Club  Room.  In  the  spring  of  1904  the  church  was 
bought  by  subscription  for  the  Union  Society.  It  has  been 
moved  and  is  now  occupied  regularly,  but  no  pastor  is 
located  here. 

There  is  also  a  Free  Baptist  Society,  but  this  is  now  do- 
ing but  little  active  work.  The  Chapel  was  sold  to  the  Cath- 
olic Societies  of  Christopher  Columbus  and  St.  John  Baptist 
for  a  society  hall. 

The  Advents  have  a  Hall  where  they  worship  in  the  vil- 
lage. There  is  also  a  Union  Mission  where  regular  meetings 
are  held.  G.  VV.  Hinckley  is  pastor  of  the  Union  Church  at 
Hinckley. 


SCHOOL  ITEMS 

The  town  was  first  divided  into  school  districts,  and 
places  selected  for  the  erection  of  schoolhouses,  in  1793. 
These  divisions  were  made  by  Josiah  Burgess  and  Daniel 
Shepherd. 

We  find  that  the  following  year  the  town  raised  the  sum 
of  £00  for  schools  and  houses  (also  £10  for  preaching). 
"Class  Masters"  were  chosen  for  the  several  "classes."  In 
1803  we  find  there  were  11  districts,  as  they  were  then  called, 


HISTORICAL  209 

in  1826  this  number  had  increased  to  15;  and  in  1879  there 
were  18.  In  1875  the  first  school  supervisor,  J araes  Plum- 
mer,  was  elected  to  look  after  the  town  school. 

HIGH    SCHOOL 

In  the  year  1874,  $500  was  raised  for  a  free  high  school 
in  this  town.  The  direct  object  of  the  high  school  was  to  offer 
to  the  older  and  more  advanced  pupils  a  chance  to  attend 
school  during  the  winter  months.  The  sum  of  flOO  was 
raised  annually  for  the  support  of  the  high  school  w'hich 
gradually  but  surely  raised  its  standard  of  scholarship. 

This  is  now  a  fitting  school  for  the  Colleges,  having  long 
since  become  an  independent  institution.  Fourteen  years 
ago  Walter  Francis  Kenrick  began  as  principal  of  the  school, 
and  to  him  and  his  untiring  endeavors  is  duo  the  strength 
and  efficiency  of  the  present  high  school.  He  remained  for 
several  years,  being  succeeded  in  1903  by  Guy  C.  Healey, 
who  did  excellent  work  for  one  year.  Harry  Emery  Pratt, 
the  present  principal,  began  in  1901. 


GOOD  WILL  FARM 

Good  Will  Farm,  the  home  for  bojs,  which  has  now 
acquired  a  world  wide  reputation,  was  early  conceived  in  the 
mind  of  its  founder  and  director,  Eev.  George  W.  Hinckley. 
1889— Founded  on  the  Chase  farm  bj'^  Rev.  G.  W.  Hinckley; 
formally  opened  for  boys  in  September;  Good  Will  Asso- 
ciation organized  in  November. 
1890— Sunshine  Cottage  added;  dedicated  September  1. 


210  FAIRFIELD 

1891 — Golden  Rule  Cottage  dedicated  September  1;  also 
Prospect  Cottage  was  dedicated  the  same  time. 

1892— Fogg  Cottage  and  Bailey  Cottage  dedicated  Septem- 
ber 1.    Later  Christian  Endeavor  Cottage  was  opened. 

1895— Mary  Louise  Hall,  dedicated  Dec.  31;  Chas.  E.  Moody 
School  Building,  the  following  day:  Elizabeth  Wilcox 
Smith  Cottage,  a  home  for  girls,  was  soon  after  opened. 

1897— Moody  Memorial  Chapel  dedicated,  June  16th. 
Grange  Cottage  built  this  same  summer. 

1900— Emily  F.  Ryerson  Memorial  School  Building  con- 
structed. 

1903— The  dormitory,  "Buckmiuster,"  and  the  Manual 
Training  building,  "Quincy,"  opened. 

1904 — Bancroft-Foote  House  dedicated  in  September. 

This  institution  is  a  monument  to  the  untiring  effort  and 

wisdom  of  Bev.   G.   W.  Hinckley.     It  has  grown  wonderfully 

and  bids  fair  to  keep  up  its  progress  in  the  years  to  come. 

The  place  it  fills  is  now  recognized   as  almost  infinite  in  its 

scope.    Besides  the  great  institution   of  Manual  Training 

there  is  a  regular  publication  largely  done  by  the  students 

called  the  Good  Will  Record. 


FACTS  OF  INTEREST 

VILLAGE    CORPORATION 

This  village  was  incorporated  as  such  in  March,  185G, 
under  the  name  of  Kendall's  Mills  Village  Corporation.  The 
first  officers  were,  E.  W.  McFadden,  Clerki  Josej^h  F.  Nye, 


HISTORICAL  211 

Treas.  and  Col.;  Orin  Woodman,  E,  G.  Pratt  and  Geo.  Rich- 
ardson, Assessors. 

The  Corporation  maintains  a  fire  department,  a  night 
watchman  and  a  day  police,  the  water  department,  and  elec- 
tric liohts. 

Afire  department  has  been  maintained  ever  since  I80G 
when  the  old  Victor  Engine  was  brought  to  town.  The  Vic- 
tor fire  company  was  formed  July  15,  the  meeting  being  held 
in  the  North  schoolhouse,  James  F.  Moses  being  chosen  fore- 
man. 

There  is  now  excellent  steamer  and  hydrant  service 
throughout  the  entire  village.  The  Steamer  ''Amoskeag" 
now  in  use,  was  bought  in  Mauchester,  N.  H.,  in  1882.  The 
engine  house  centrally  located  on  Bridge  street  was  built  the 
same  year. 

The  electric  lighting  plant  was  put  in  about  188G  when 
ten  of  Fairfield's  most  prominent  citizens  invested  in  the 
power.  The  plant  was  later  sold  to  the  Waterville  and  Fair- 
field Light  and  Power  Co.,  which  company  operates  the 
lighting  system  of  both  places,  and  also  the  efficient  railroad 
system  which  so  closely  connects  this  village  with  an  enter- 
prising city. 

LAWRENCE  PUBLIC  LIBRARY 

This  Library  was  erected  in  1901  on  a  lot  given  by  Mrs. 
Newhall,  on  Lawrence  Ave.  The  building  is  a  beautiful  stone 
structure,  artistically  finished  and  decorated,  dedicated  July 
24,  1901;  Ilezekiah  Butterworth,  the  well  known  writer, 
deliverino-  the  address. 


212  FAIRFIELD 

Frances  Kenrick  has  served  as  librarian  since  it  was 
opened.  Tlie  library  contains  over  5,000  volumes,  while 
there  are  29  reo-ular  periodical  publications  found  upon  its 
tables. 

Mr,  Lawrence  and  Mrs.  Newhall,  the  donors,  give  annu- 
ally for  its  support  the  sum  of  |500,  while  the  town  raises 
the  sum  of  |G00. 

VICTOR  GRANGE 

Victor  Grange,  No  49,  was  organized  October  29,  1874 
with  29  charter  members.  This  is  one  of  the  most  prosper- 
ous and  successful  granges  in  the  state  and  has  met  with  a 
remarkable  growth.  A  new  hall  erected  at  Fairfield  Center 
is  the  home  of  the  organization.  This  building  was  dedi- 
cated October  1,  1903,  and  is  one  of  which  its  many  mem- 
bers are  proud. 

THE  FAIRFIELD    JOURNAL 

The  Fairfield  Journal  was  established  in  1862  since 
which  time  it  has  continued  regularly.  Mr.  A,  C.  Ladd  took 
possession  of  the  Journal  in  1897.  He  sold  to  the  Fairfield 
Journal  Publishing  Company,  Dec.  31,  190G.
